Join hosts Daniel, Ashlee, and Ashley as they delve into a controversial and heartbreaking incident in Sturgeon, Missouri. The Board of Alderman has launched an administrative investigation into police officer Myron Woodson after he shot and killed a blind and deaf Shih Tzu named Teddy, fearing the dog may have had rabies.

In this episode, we'll discuss the body camera footage obtained by KOMU 8, which shows Woodson's encounter with Teddy and the subsequent tragic decision to shoot the dog after several failed attempts to capture it. We'll explore the community's response, including a petition with over 53,000 signatures calling for Woodson's removal and a federal lawsuit filed by Teddy's owner, citing a violation of the Fourth Amendment.

We'll also cover the city's announcement of a third-party investigation, the confidentiality of the investigation's details, and the temporary leadership change in Sturgeon following Mayor Kevin Abrahamson's resignation.

Tune in to hear more about this emotional case, the legal implications, and the ongoing community impact.
